Giveaway Day (a day late)....

Hurray, it's giveaway day again over at Sew Mama Sew! I participated last fall and it was so much fun and gained so many fantastic new readers! Thanks y'all!

Today, I want to give away a great book from one of the sweetest quilting bloggers I've met since I started this journey, Amy Smart. I participated in her Virtual Quilting Bee last year and then got to meet her at QuiltBLISS. I wish I wasn't such a chicken and tried to visit with her more, but my shyness over powered. ha!

Amy recently released her first book with 12 fun, fast and easy patterns, Fabulously Fast Quilts. I already own the book and couldn't part with mine, and I want to support Amy, so I am giveaway a brand new copy today! Yay!

To enter, please comment letting me know if you could met one quilter, who would it be? I am happy to ship internationally as long as Amazon and a copy of this book is available there. If you would prefer a Kindle copy, then I can send that anywhere!

You don't need to follow my blog to enter, but I would love it if you did! It's really easy, just click my bloglovin button below!

Oh my gosh, that's a tough question because there are so many to choose from ~ but the first two that come to mind are Christa Watson and Leah Day. BTW, I love your blog and have been following you for a while!

I am not sure about any famous quilters, but my two favorite blog quilters are Paula @ The Sassy Quilter and Jennifer @ Glinda Quilts. I think it would be interesting to meet these two amazing and talented ladies. :) -Brittany

That's a tricky question. My fear is that some folks might not be as awesome as I imagine them in my mind. However, I agree with you; Amy Smart was a delight to meet. Perhaps she will come to Quilt Bliss again, and you can have another chance. Speaking of that, Melissa's readers, Melissa is a pleasure to be around too, but don't let her fool you, she's not the shrinking violet she claims to be (perhaps just when star-struck). I found her to be true to her red-haired appearance--full of spirit and and an outgoing, talented quilter, who wouldn't shy away from bantering with a new friend or speaking her mind, but in a caring, honest way. To answer the question, I'd say Anna Marie Horner.

I would like to meet some of the bloggers that always entertain me with their blog posts. Several come to mind: Barb and Mary of Me and My Sister, Vanessa Christensen of V and Co. and Beth of Quilting Hottie Haven. I think I could spend time with any of these ladies and have fun no matter what we were doing.,

Hi Melissa....so happy to see you participating in Sew Mama Sew giveaways!! I was thrilled to meet Amy at QuiltBliss but my all time quilt hero and someone I would just die to meet is Alex Anderson. Thank you for the chance to win Amy's book.

As a new quilter I would be completely star struck to meet any of these wonderful ladies! Lori Holt, Camille Rosekelley, Denyse Schmidt and Pat Sloan are a few that come to mind. Thank you for sharing!

gorgeous book, thanks for the chance! I'm not sure I have an answer to your question though. There's certainly no "big blogger" that I want to meet, just the friends I've made through blogging who live far away from me.

I would love to meet Denyse Schmidt, she is (kind of) the mother of modern quilting fabrics & designs but I love that she makes clear that the basis for all of this is traditional quilting & fabrics, that it's a question of re-invention & modern interpretation. Thanks for the chance to win a copy of Amy's book, she is one of my favourite bloggers.

I would love to meet Amy Gibson and Lori Holt and Alex Anderson and ..... LOL Amy because of her teaching and sewing skills, her personality and her energy. Lori because of her designs and organizational skills and of course, her little cottage which I just love. Alex because of her experience and her love of quilting. Dawn array-dawn at cox dot net

Interesting question. I would pick Gwen Marston or Leah Day. Both have been very inspiring to me - they came into my life at the right time! I follow you on Blogloving. Thanks for putting my name in the hat for the drawing.

I've been emailing backwards and forwards with several bloggers so I would say Patti from Retired to Quilt, because Saskatoon MQG is taking part in a swap with ours in the UK and she's on that guild, plus I keep ribbing her about the snow and I am planning on emigrating to Canada, just somewhere a little more urban (sorry Patti)

Oh that is an easy one, sort of because there are actually 2 people that I'm hoping to meet and maybe even take a class from, both Judy Madsen and Angela Walters. I can only hope that I'm as good as them some day.

Difficult question! Maureen Cracknell because her process seems very close to how I work so I am sure I could learn so much. But Molli Sparkles is so fun and I know that would be an inspiring and hilarious day. blackflowersacidrain(at)gmail(dot)com

Awesome giveaway - I've had my eye on this book for a WHILE! I'd love to meet my online friend, Marcia, and just watch her freestyle long arm quilting - and definitely learn from her. I know she's not "famous" - - - but her work is gorgeous and she's such a sweetheart!

Hmmm, tough one. I think I would like to meet Jenny Doan or Leah Day (and many others lol). Amy Smart's book is on my list of books to pick up when I get a chance. Thanks dragonfly9716 at yahoo dot com

I would like to meet one of the quilters from a few years back that have influenced me. Maybe Pauline Burbidge or Dierdre Amsden. Or the Japanese quilter with the Taupe and other books that have been recently translated: I think her name is Juko Saito. Apologies if I've mispelled or missed a name somehow.

I would like to meet Kate Spain. I just love her. I have most of her quilting patterns and some her fabric. She is just a really talented quilter. I would be honored to win a copy of that book. It would become a wonderful addition to the beginning of my quilting library.Thank you for the chance to win and for being a part of Sew Mama Sew Giveaway.

What a hard question.There are so many that I would love to meet but i think my first choice would be either Lisa Sipes or Eleanor Burns. Lisa's quilting is to die for and Eleanor invented the art of fast quilting.
